Taxonomy
The species was first described in 1768 by Linnaeus as Cancer neptuni. It was redescribed in 1893 by Robert Payne Bigelow as Squilla alba. In 1986 Raymond Manning and Chanan Lewinsohn assigned it to the genus Alima with the species name Alima neptuni, and synonymised A alba, and A. hyalina and various other shrimps with A. neptuni. In 1998 Joseph Poupin described it as Alima alba. The most recent description (as A. neptuni) was in 2002 by Shane Ahyong.
